1. INTRODUCTION

We congratulate you on choosing your new marine shore power system. This system is a member of a family of marine products from WhisperPower.The shore power system provides a complete plug & play power system for boats.Read this manual prior to installing and using the system.

2. SAFETY

WARNING! This system has been designed and approved for installation by those who has read and follow the instruction in this installation guide. A qualified electrician is not required for installing the system. For this reason it is prohibited to make any adjustments or modifications to the component parts of the system. Changes could mean life threatening consequences to people in and around the boat.

WARNING! This system must not be used without proper installation of the electrical cabinet according to attached installation instruction.

WARNING! The power feed from the shore may not be connected to the boat before the entire system has been installed in the boat. Connecting the power from an outside source otherwise risks exposing people in and around the boat to life threatening hazards.

WARNING! The shore power system’s protective earth must be electrically connected with all the electrically conductive devices in the boat that have a connection to earth, for example, via the water. Failure to do this will result in immediate mortal danger to people in or around the boat in the event of a fault to the electrical equipment connected to the shore power system.

WARNING! In order for the system to be able to provide protection against personal injury in the event of a fault in one of the electrical devices connected to the system, the system’s electrical cabinet must be a part of the installation.

WARNING! The electrical cabinet on shore, that the shore power cable is connected to, should be regarded as a part of the installation. This is because the shore power system’s protective earth must be able to provide protection against personal injury in the event of a fault in any part of the system.

WARNING! Mains plugs are not the same in all countries and may have a different earth. If the electrical system is connected to the land power supply through an adapter cable then it must be carried out in accordance with the national heavy current regulations.

WARNING! Installation may mean the need for holes in walls and parts of the boat’s hull. As a result of this, the greatest possible caution must be observed to ensure that no form of leakage occurs where peripheral lake or sea water may penetrate your boat.

WARNING! The utmost caution must be observed when using electrical tools in conjunction with work close to or in direct connection to water. Electrical tools that fall into the water represent mortal danger to people who are partially or fully in the water.

NOTE! The electrical cabinet must not be mounted more than 3 meters from the power inlet.

9. INSTALLATION OF THE SYSTEM IN THE BOAT

9.1. PREPARATIONSLay out the system components and cables. Check that the length of the cables is suf-ficient when taking the placement of the system apparatus into consideration.

9.2. ASSEMBLY OF POWER INLET1. The electrical installation must be switched off during installation.2. Install the power inlet according to the stated instruction and directions in the manual.

To install the power inlet, proceed as follows:1. Make a cut out in ship’s hull using the outline drawings.2. Position the gasket and inlet over the hull opening, align the mounting holes and

attach the inlet over the hull with screws. Install the inlet with 4mm stainless steel screws.

A: 55 mm

B: 4.5 mm

C: 50 mm

9.3. SURFACE MOUNTING OF ELECTRICAL CABINETSelect a suitable place for fitting the electrical cabinet on a wall. Drill 2 holes of 4.5mm diameter and use 2 stainless steel screws with a flat bottom to mount the electrical cabinet.

9.4. SURFACE MOUNTING OF DOUBLE WALL SOCKETSelect a suitable place for fitting the double wall socket. Drill 2 holes of 4.5mm diameter and use 2 stainless steel screws with a flat bottom to mount the socket.

9.5. ASSEMBLY OF CABLES Connect the internal cables to the system components, power inlet, electrical cabinet and wall sockets. In order to release the cables connected to the system devices, the accom-panying dismantling tools must be used.

NOTE! Ensure that the cables are relieved in the entry points to the devices when as-sembling.

NOTE! Connect all live devices in the boat that have a connection to earth, for example via the water, to the earth-connection block (X0) located on the bottom of the electrical cabinet.
